What Hip-Hop Wired Is Thankful For In 2012’s Rap Game

Happy Turkey Day family. We won’t call it Thanksgiving Day since our Native American brothers and sisters got swindled, but that’s another story. On this day when folks give praise—and stuff their bellies—to all the blessings they have received in 2012 while surrounded by family and friends, we couldn’t help but think about what we’re thankful for in the rap game.

While ratchetness and f-ckery—whether it be senseless beefs or the proliferation of struggles rappers, for example—still abound, there are still many facets of the Hip-Hop world that make our daily routine of bringing you all the rap news fit to link worthwhile. Read below and click through the pages to see and read all that the Hip-Hop Wired crew is thankful for right about now…

We’re thankful Dr. Dre didn’t give Kendrick Lamar’s good kid/M.A.A.D. city the Detox treatment, and it actually was released. Also, that K. Dot showed you don’t need a “hit” single to sell albums.

We’re thankful a Steebie J and Joseline album is not in stores right now.
